An email from a squirrelly friend:
Q. How do you know you’re living under a Socialist government?
A. When your President is able to fire the CEO of an automobile company.
My reply:
I had the same thought. What are you doing?
His reply:
There is something absolutely surreal about the image of the President of the United States saying that it is okay to buy a GM car because the car warranty is backed by the government. So our federal government is now in the auto warranty business? How about backing our national security and just let the auto companies fend for themselves.
My reply:
Can I post that on my blog?
His reply:
Yes. Just say it’s from your squirrelly friend.
My reply:
What are you doing?
His reply:
I’m eating an oatmeal raisin cookie from LaMadeleine right now! But it’s not as good as I bet that Karamel Sutra is.
My reply:
You don’t want my cookies?
The Karamel Sutra is okay. It’s a bit hard. I’m waiting for it to soften up. You’ll never hear me say those words again.
His reply:
If you don’t leave it alone, it will never soften.
